Description

A general purpose geometry that provides excellent chip formation in most steels including free-machining, medium- and high-carbon steels. A P30 carbide substrate for improved toughness and AM480 coating, a proprietary wear-resistant multilayer PVD coating to improve tool life. A higher rake geometry that provides excellent chip formation in both stainless steels and high-temperature alloys. A tough M25 carbide substrate coated with AM485, a high heat-resistant proprietary multilayer PVD coating. With a general purpose geometry, the K inserts can be used in grey cast irons as well as ductile irons. A high wear-resistant K10 carbide substrate to improve tool life and coated with AM480, a proprietary multilayer PVD coating to improve resistance against tool wear. A higher rake cutting geometry provides excellent chip formation in nonferrous materials. An M15/K15 carbide substrate paired with TiCN coating for improved lubricity to resist built-up material, increasing tool life and maintaining chip formation. A lower rake geometry to improve edge strength in both hardened tool steels and high-strength alloys. With a P30 carbide substrate for improved toughness and coated with AM480, a proprietary multilayer PVD coating to improve resistance against tool wear.
